    Would someone check a car for me in Texas

    Wam, Be careful with cars from Texas! Many of them come back totally clear with clean titles, clean CarFax and AutoCheck reports and they have in fact been totalled in accidents and salvaged with no evidence in their paper trail. You were smart to have the car inspected. I just checked out...

    Might trade 09 Vette on 97 GTS. Opinion...

    I would look for a newer Viper (2008 and up). I just don't think that it is a good swap for you, regardless of what money is exchanged. I have both a 2002 GTS Final Edition and a 2010 Roadster, both completely stock. While both are amazing machines, the 2010 is a better, faster, more...

    Yes I do, but my camera farted out in the middle of the tour, so I had to use the tour guide's camera and she will be sending me a disk with the pics. As soon as I have it, I will post the pics. Amazing:-)

    I have seen this new striping in person and I have to say that they look amazing! I was at the Conner Ave. Plant on thursday (picking up my new 2010 beast) and saw easily 100+ Snakes in all available color combos and they all looked incredible. The stripes are different from what you are used...

    Pre-purchase questions from a newbe...

    Hi, I sent you a PM, so check your inbox. I know where you can find your car and it isn't too far from you. It checks out with AutoCheck (scores 84) and the Chrysler data base, but you need to have it inspected by a Viper Tech or someone who really knows these cars inside and out. It might...

    Pulled the trigger on '02 GTS FE! Yeah baby!

    Thanks for the advice on the break-in period. I will be sure to read it and follow the directions to the letter. I wish I had the time to go pick up the car, but I just can't spare the time. It's killing me, but I am just too swamped at the moment. It might just prove to be the longest 10...

    Pulled the trigger on '02 GTS FE! Yeah baby!

    Well, I pulled the plug on the '02 Metallic Gray GTS with stripes that I posted pics on and pulled the trigger on an amazing '02 GTS FE with only 380 miles on it.
